RHODE ISLAND Part 48

3.      What do we need to do to get child support?

In Rhode Island, child support is the financial contribution from the non-custodial parent to the custodial parent towards the expenses of raising the child. Generally child support expenses include the basic necessities such as food, clothing shelter and medical care.

Every state has individual divorce laws with specific child support guidelines that are used in calculating how much child support is to be allocated. While every state has its own child support laws they all take into consideration the income levels (earned and unearned) of both the parents as well as the expenses related to raising the child in calculating child support
